What to do and see in Nikko, Kanto: The Best Scenic Walking Areas

May 21, 2021 Alice Mieles

The shrines and temples of Nikko have been recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Here, you can visit the Toshogu Shrine, which dates from the 17th century and is a monument to (and the mausoleum of) Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of a shogunate that ruled Japan for 250 years. Travelers day-tripping from Tokyo generally focus on the sacred sites, but if you have extra time, explore the area’s beautiful waterfalls and lakes.

I have been here in Winter. Unfortunately the Typhoon a couple month ago destroyed some of the best trekking parts however it is still a great place. When you got good weather and start your trip early, your going to be almost alone.

Enjoyed the breathtaking sunrise. Definitely it’s worth it to hike up 1445 steps to see this unforgettable moment! We went there by car and no snow on the streets. It might be better to put Eisen depends on the condition but when we went, it was ok with the trekking shoes.
